Thanks, hard to believe that there are so few images available and I can find none from the actual collection, just the catalogs.

Fantastic thread!

For the first time I see a photo of the famed Kara Khorassan type of wootz.

I have the 1923 and 1955 editions. The 1912 was well above my pay grade: marital bliss is more important.

But, BTW, I just caught my better half reading ( not leafing through!) Kirill Rivkin's book on Eastern sword! All is not lost:-)

Of course, I have searched in several languages but not much shows up.

With 12 years delay :-))) my comment on Tom Hyle's doubts re. color photography in 1912: yes, it existed. Google " "Prokudin-Gorsky".

He was a Russian photographer and made color pictures of different areas of Russian Empire between 1905 - 1915. His pics of Central Asian persons show local weapons in great detail.
